One county commission stays with the GOP, and another is now completely in Democratic hands despite having a Republican majority just two years ago.
The Plymouth County Commission will have a new face on it next year, as will the Barnstable County Commission, but they're from different parties. In Plymouth County, Republican Jared Valanzola of Rockland won a seat with a second place finish while incumbent Republican Ron Beaty of Barnstable was unsuccessful in his re-election bid on Cape Cod.
Ranked-choice voting won't be coming to Massachusetts anytime soon.
Bay State voters rejected Question 2 which would have implemented ranked-choice voting in the state. With about 80 percent of the votes counted over night, 55 percent of voters had said No on 2, so the Yes on 2 campaign conceded.
